*     INSTALL RUNMLWIN TO A SPECIFIED LOCATION
****************************************************************************
*     The recommended way to install runmlwin is by typing the following:
*
*     . ssc install runmlwin, replace
*
*     and this should install runmlwin from its official location on the
*     Statistical Software Components (SSC) archive.
*
*     However, this approach will not work for users who are not allowed to
*     download Stata ado packages to their computer, for example, students
*     in computer labs. 
*
*     For these users we recommend that IT support at their institutions
*     install runmlwin centrally for them. However, if this is not possible,
*     then we recommend users manually change their default Stata ado
*     package download location to one where they are allowed to save files.
*     Users then need to instruct Stata where on their computer this
*     location is. This do-file provides the commands for semi-automating
*     this process.
*
*     All users need to do to manually install runmlwin to a user-specified
*     location is to run the five commands in this do file. However, users
*     must change the directory path "C:\temp" to a path where they can save
*     files.

* (1) Store the original PLUS directory path in the global macro sysdir_plus
global sysdir_plus = c(sysdir_plus) 

* (2) Change the PLUS directory path to a directory where you can save files
sysdir set PLUS "C:\temp"

* (3) Install runmlwin to this new directory
ssc install runmlwin

* (4) Revert back to the original PLUS directory path
sysdir set PLUS "$sysdir_plus"

* (5) Add the runmlwin directory to the ado-file directory path
adopath + "C:\temp"
